Animation & Pricing

Animated Infographics

This is the simplest form of animation and as such the most cost-effective option in our arsenal. Moving text may sound very basic, but it can have different styles. Below are some examples of kinetic typography for an explainer video, a save the date video and a launch video. Hover over the thumbnails with your mouse (or click when on a phone or tablet) to get an impression of the animation.

Average Cost: €2.000,— per 30 seconds.

2D Photo Based Animation

Sometimes all you have for us to work with, are photo’s. Or the strong feeling the animation needs photo’s. We can use existing footage or stock photo’s to suit your needs. We’ll need to select the images you like, cut the subjects out of their backgrounds, retouch where needed and animate them into a coherent piece.

Average Cost: €2.500,— per 30 seconds.

2D Flat Illustrated videos

Most explainer videos we make are of this type. These videos are like animated infographics and while those come in many, many styles, it is by far the most common way of explaining a topic, product or service. Since illustration simplifies, it gets to the core of the message and amplifies understanding and retention.

Average Cost: €3.000,— per 30 seconds.

Book Illustration Animations

We can breathe life into existing animations as well, be it environments or characters. This usually means cutting out drawings and bringing every detail into separate Photoshop layers before we animate them. The only thing to consider – price-wise – is if the characters need to speak or not, since this can add significant time to creating the animation.

Average Cost: €3.000,— per 30 seconds.

Compositing

Compositing videos are a specific type of video, usually not ‘animated’ in the usual sense of the word, but it brings together several existing images, combined with 3D realistic renders, green screen footage or stock video footage. The result is a high quality, almost poetic, look and feel.

Average Cost: €5.000,— per 30 seconds.

Stop Motion

A style that stands out from the rest is Stop Motion. This technique gives a feeling of authenticity. It can be used when you want to achieve certain effects that in real-time would have to look super realistic (and expensive), but where in stop motion we can get away with small discrepancies.

Average Cost: between €5.000,- and €10.000,— per 30 seconds.
(This depends on whether we give something a stop-motion-feel or if it is real stop motion.)

Green Screen videos

Green screen is the technique whereby objects or people stand in front of a green screen and that screen is then replaced with anything we want.

This way we can place these objects or people in environments that consist of either 2D abstract designs or fantasy 3D environments. Interaction between background (designed environment) and foreground (isolated objects or people) is extremely important to create the right feeling.

Average Cost: €5.000,— per 30 seconds.
(This excludes the actual green screen shoot)

3D Realistic animation

What better way than to make things ultimately realistic by using 3D. Mostly used for product videos or TV commercials. Lots of times this is more cost-effective than shooting the real thing in a studio. It also creates opportunity for a more poetic interpretation.

Average Cost: €20.000,— per 30 seconds.
